MIDDLEBORO – A wannabe hip-hop singer had his bail reduced to $50,000 during his arraignment Friday in Brockton Superior Court on a 29-count indictment.

John Campbell, 30, also known as Six-fever, is being held at the Plymouth House of Correction. His bail was initially set at $500,000 after his Miller Street home was raided, but was reduced to $75,000 at a bail review. Campbell pleaded not guilty Friday and lobbied for $15,000 bail, but Superior Court Judge Frank M. Gaziano set bail at $50,000.

If convicted on all 29 counts, Campbell faces a maximum sentence of more than 100 years.

Campbell also faces forfeiture proceedings, said Plymouth County District Assistant Attorney Russell Eonas.

When police raided his Miller Street home in October, a new Jaguar was parked in the driveway. A YouTube video shows the car being driven by Campbell. Although neither the Jaguar nor the Miller Street home are in Campbell’s name, Eonas said both are under review for forfeiture proceedings.

During the October raid, Middleboro police seized 1,500 Percocet pills valued at $45,000, 100 grams of cocaine, $29,000 in cash, two semi-automatic handguns, a .38-caliber revolver, two shotguns, a .22-caliber rifle and five Glock 9mm magazines with 30 rounds each.

After the raid, the Department of Family and Children took custody of Campbell’s children, and they remain in the agency’s care.

Police also seized 13 puppies and four adult pit bulls, one of which was pregnant with six more pups.
